Want To Go See a Movie With Me in 100 Years?
Hey, are you free on November 18th, 2115? Up for a movie? "100 Years - The Movie You Will Never See" stars John Malkovich and it won't be released for, you guessed it, 100 years! So unfortunately, you and I won't get to see it (unless you have some incredible...
Don’t Model Fluky Politicians
Today is municipal election day in my neck of the woods. Politicians' signs and ads, with their beaming smiles and slogans, are plastered all over. You can't go anywhere without seeing them. In 2011, we had a federal election here in Canada. And something unexpected...
You’re Not My Mom, But Here’s a Gift …
Since it's Mother's Day today, I'm in a gift-giving mood ... I can't buy you flowers, or take you out to dinner (you'd find that creepy.) But I can give you something to help you grow your coaching business! Since discovery calls are so important for coaches to nail,...
How Marc Got His Mojo Back
Do you feel like you've lost your mojo? Maybe you've been hit with a financial setback ... or a health issue ... or a serious relationship has ended. It sucks to lose your mojo, I know all about it! I got into business at a really young age (I used to be in real...

I loved the television show "Lost". Every week, I'd anxiously wait for a new episode - which was before the days of Netflix, so there would often be repeats ... Frustrating! ("Lost" is hard enough to follow and decipher if you binge-watch it on Netflix nowadays, but...
Recovering From the Cosmic 2 x 4
All human beings face challenges, that just goes with the territory. But some of those challenges are bigger than others, and it's those big ones that can either destroy us, or turn us into something bigger. This week I had women's career coach Laura Pittman on...
An 8 Sometimes Beats a 10
We all know that 10 is better than 8 ... isn't it??? Not always, especially in the coaching world. Let me explain. One of the first questions that I ask new clients (1:1 or group ones), is: "Are you a perfectionist?" Most clients will admit that they are, or that they...
Happy Wife, Happy Life
One of my clients, Paul, is a career coach who's really on the ball. He's always early for our calls, he sends me updates to let me know how things are going, and he cares for his clients (a plus for us coaches!) Last week, we had an interview scheduled on Blab, and I...
The Next Big Thing For Crowdfunding
A few months back, I became interested in crowdfunding after reading a book called "Bold" by Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler (the last 1/2 of the book gives great advice about how to run a successful crowdfunding campaign.) So I was really excited when one of my...
They’re Watching You …
Do you ever feel like you’re putting content out there: on social media, videos, on your blog, etc – and that not many people are seeing it? I think every coach or content creator feels that way sometimes. I’ve got a lot of people on my email list, as Facebook...
